Mars the planet   

Intro to Mars

Mars sometimes referred to as the red planet got its name mars from the god of war. It is the fourth planet from the sun. It’s one of the most known and famous planets and the reason for this is scientists have found signs of life on the planet, which suggests that there could have been life on the planet and if so is there a way that life can still be sustained on the planet.

Physical features

Mars is the second smallest planet in the solar system and is 140,000,000 miles away from the earth, in kilometers its 225,308,160. Mars has the radius of about 2160 miles long that’s the same distance as traveling from Ravenscroft Tennessee to dig arm Montana driving. That would take about a day and 10 hours from point a to point b so traveling around mars should take about the same time. The gravity on mars is 3.711m/s^2 which is 3.711 meters per second squared, it is about 3 times less than the gravity on earth so up on mars you would be much lighter then you are on earth. An example is if you weigh 100 pounds on earth you would weigh 37.7 pounds on mars.

Mission to mars

Scientists have been discussing the possibility of sending people to mars because the earth was getting overpopulated. Research on this has started since 2010, when scientist found signs of life in mars and also learned that mars had conditions suitable for life in the past.

In 2013 a global search started for the first humans to go to mars. More than 200,000 men and women answered to the first call for astronauts to go to mars. Out of the 200,000 men and women that answered to the call only 6 teams of 4 were picked but they are only chosen to go under the extensive training which began in 2015 not to go to mars.

The missions to mars will be in 2020 and 2022; they will be unmanned only containing a communication satellite and a rover. The communication satellite is to communicate between earth's and mars 24/7. The rover will be to search the area and to choose a good location for the settlement.

The next launch after the rover will be in 2024. The cargo launch where 2 life unites, 2 life support units and a supply unite are going to be sent up to mars So that a reliable living environment will be waiting for the astronauts when they get there.

The launch in 2026 will be the launch that has the first humans to land on mars. This launch will contain 4 crew members and depending on if the launch goes well and if they reach their destination there will be a new crew going to mars every 2 years.

Guide to important skills for little players in football

(5f 5in to 5f 10in) (130lb to 160lb)

When playing football there are certain skills that you will need such as catching, running throwing and tackling. All these skills are essential to the sport and for the little players there are ways to use these skills to their advantage so they can lower their disadvantage against bigger players.This guide is more effective to players that are 5f 5in to 5f 10in and weigh 130lb to 160lb.
Running There are two ways to begin running in football,there is the rocket stance for wide receivers and the up stance and down for running backs.        Rocket stance:put one foot in front of the other with space between.(legs wide as possible) make sure you're comfortable and bend your knee to about a 145 degree angle. Up stance: This is when both hands are resting on your thighs about a few inches above your knees. Down stance/three point stance: When you put one hand on the ground like a lineman and crouch one foot in front of the other.

As soon as you catch tuck the ball under your arm and run When catching the ball make a diamond shape with your hand to do so except when the ball is coming too low. When the ball is above your waist or the side catch it with the diamond/thumbs in  and when it's below your waist thumbs out and pinkies in.
		Tackling To make a good tackle first you should duck down and bend your knees. Next put your outside shoulder into the player and wrap your arms around there hip or legs. After that follow through and push forward until the other player is down. Do not run and hit the opposite player high up on there body it has very little effect. Also don't try and wrap your arms high up on the other player's body, the top of the player's body is larger so it is  harder to get your arms around.
